In this chilling and inventive documentary, executive produced by Werner Herzog (Grizzly Man) and Errol Morris (The Fog of
War), the unrepentant former members of Indonesian death squads are challenged to re-enact some of their many murders in the
style of the American movies they love. In the 1960s Anwar Congo was a leader in Indonesia's pro-regime paramilitary group,
Pancasila Youth who, along with his band of dedicated followers, was amongst those who participated in the murder and torture
more than a million alleged Communists, ethnic Chinese and intellectuals. Proud of their deeds, which have still gone unpunished,
Anwar and his pals are lauded as national heroes, and are delighted when the filmmakers ask them to re-enact these murders
for their documentary - in any genre they desire. Initially Anwar and his friends enthusiastically take up the challenge using
hired actors, making elaborate sets and costumes, but eventually as the movie violence is played out and reconstructed, Anwar's
conscience begins to stir and feelings of remorse surface. Year of Production: 2012

Cinema has long shaped not only how mass violence is perceived but also how it is performed. Today, when media coverage is
central to the execution of terror campaigns and news anchormen serve as embedded journalists, a critical understanding of
how the moving image is implicated in the imaginations and actions of perpetrators and survivors of violence is all the more
urgent. If the cinematic image and mass violence are among the defining features of modernity, the former is significantly
implicated in the latter, and the nature of this implication is the book's central focus. This edited anthology brings together
a range of newly commissioned essays and interviews from the world's leading academics and documentary filmmakers, including
Ben Anderson, Errol Morris, Harun Farocki, Rithy Phan, Avi Mograbi, Brian Winston, and Michael Chanan
